In the summer of 2017, I graduated from the FI-EN literary translators' mentorship program organized by the Finnish Literature Exchange (FILI). I also have a Ph.D. in Finnish literature and film from the Department of Scandinavian Studies at the University of Washington. I have experience translating fiction, general nonfiction, young adult fiction, and children's picture books. I have translated well-known authors such as Mika Waltari and Rosa Liksom.
